Cline wins Sun City photo contest

Jody Cline is the winner of the 2024 Orchid Photo Contest, hosted by the The Orchid Club, a branch of the Garden Club of Sun City.
Cline, who is also a member of the Camera Guild of Sun City, won with a photo entry of her dendrobium, Love Memory ‘Fizz’. The photo was taken with her iphone and was combined with photos she’d previously taken, using an app called Procreate on her iPad. The result was a layered effect that enabled her to include an Asian background and an image of the eclipse.
She and her husband, Barry, moved to Sun City in June of 2021 from Eugene, OR. She left behind her extensive collection of orchids, thinking they would not survive the move. She eventually started a new collection in Sun City, but struggled to obtain the same results she’d enjoyed in Oregon. This led her to the orchid group that meets monthly, 10:30 a.m.-noon on the second Thursday of the month, at the garden office located at the Grand Center, 10415 Grand Ave.
She is enjoying meeting other orchid lovers and is hoping to have as much success growing them in Sun City as she did in Eugene.
For additional information about the orchid group, contact Mary Paneno at 952-334-1825. Visitors are welcome at the monthly meeting.
